Udara with distinct iD feature.

[Psyche]

Two Udara species are similar in sharing a distinctive feature.
They both have two tornal spots in space 1b and none in space 1a.
Most Udara species have three tornal spots.

Both also lack submarginal spots( lunules0 on both wings.

Udara akasa.
Underside white & HW marginal spots w2hite.
Occassionally a small streak may be present in space 1b representing a third spot.

the subspecies in Thailand is more distinctly three-spotted at the HW tornus.

Udara akasa appears to be common in the highlands.


Udara selma.
U. selma is always two-spotted at the tornus & the HW marginal spot are rounder.
UnH strongly darker grey.

Added.
Udara toxopeusi.
Underside without submarginal spots & two hw tornal spots (as in U. akasa, selma.)
UnF postdiscal spots aligned in an arc.

Udara camenae.
This is very similar in lacking the submarginal spots/lunules but is three-spotted at the HW tornus.

Also similar to U. camenae (with 3 tornal spots)..
Udara albocaerulea.

These two species share a common feature.
UnH have a dark spot at the base of space 7.

These two are very similar and seem to have been much confused.

Celastrina lavendularis.
the key separate Celestrina based on the darker ground and prominent white rings around the spots.
However, in P. Malaysia there is only C. levandularis to contend with.
Underside ground darkish grey with prominent white rings around the spots.
UnH spot 7 and sub-basal spots very dark.
UnH submarginal lunulate line often rather pointy.
Forms with smaller spots also occur.

Udara placidula.
Udara species care marked as in Celestrina.
U. placidula is greyer than U. dilecta and have HW spot 7 blacker and darker than the other postdiscal spots.
The general appearance is like C. lavendularis.
However the white rings are only weakly developed.
UpF male with a very narrow border.
HW submarginal lunules more rounded.

The two museum specimens have some problem.
1. This lack submarginal spots and look to be U. camenae.
https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/2847201798
2. The male upperside looks correct, but the UnH spot 7 is pale.
